Bears safety Eddie Jackson was named as a player in the punt return competition.
“I used to go to and he’d be like, ‘You know Eddie, you keep playin’, you might be back there for real.”
Whether or not Hightower is serious about giving Jackson a real chance as a returner, he’s definitely serious about how Jackson has helped during special teams periods. “Every time we do drill work, he's back there running down as a gunner trying to help the young guys, or he's back there catching them himself,” Hightower said. “He does a lot of work that people don't see outside of defense to help young guys. I think he's a tremendous leader and he's having a really good season. He's a really good guy to have here. I've really enjoyed coaching Eddie.
“I’m here to do whatever it takes for the team,” Jackson said. “They need me to play punt returner, I’ll do it. They want me to play gunner, kickoff, I’ll do that too. I know it’s late in my career, but hey, whatever it takes.”
